4096x4096, 60 fps, top-and-bottom
stereo ProRes files to Local Hero Post
in Los Angeles, where colorist Leandro
Marini worked with Assimilate's
Scratch.
With Invisible under his belt,
Smithingham's enthusiasm for VR as an
evolutionary filmmaking medium
continues to wax. "I'm a futurist," he
says, "so I'm already looking forward to
being able to have a new retina implant
that is computerized, and a chip
implanted into my brain stem that
would allow me to turn on VR whenever I want instead of having to use a
headset. I know that sounds weird right
now, but I think VR in a headset is the
'brick-sized cell phone' of a new wave
[of technology] that will become more
and more advanced. I read recently that
new technology can be defined as something that wasn't around when you were
born. So the things that are new to us
and seem kind of scary and intense won't
be scary and won't be intense for our

children and our children's children."
Tatlock also feels the surface has
barely been scratched in terms of VR's
potential. "I personally really enjoy
watching 360 video and playing virtualreality games," she says. "I'm sure you
can find metrics about how long people
can comfortably stay in headset - it's
foolish to say there's no kind of story
you wouldn't be able to do in VR. But
it's been our experience that people who
watch the first five minutes of Invisible
will want to keep going as long as the
story sustains.
"The challenge right now is that
VR is so expensive and it takes so long
to stitch everything together," Tatlock
continues. "You have to spend money
on visual effects for every shot, so no
one is making $100 million VR movies
just yet. But once that level of storytelling resources is put up against this
medium, I think people will want to
watch."
